My current fandom is a small fandom with only one main group space. A couple of years back the bnf of the fandom declared slash pairings immoral because none of the characters are 'canonically gay'. Everyone who didn't fall in line with this got shouted out of the fandom and all the slashers left to save themselves from being doxxed.

Fandom has never been perfect but FUCK THIS witch hunt, purity culture, faux moral outrage bullshit that's going on these days. I miss old school fandom. Hell zines were better than this.

I'm surprised fandoms still exist where anti-slash is considered a 'virtue'

Ikr? It's a kid show. Apparently this justifies it, even though the bnf writes het fic.

"anal sex in a fic for a kids show?! we can't have this"
"it's okay, it's a female-presenting anus"
"ah, carry on then"

That sounds batshit. I'm surprised there are fandom spaces where you can be proudly anti-slash and not get attacked at by the tumblr hivemind.

It's not on Tumblr. It's kinda old school in that it's shut off from outside influences and the bnf (s) rule the roost.

Also the controversy over the MLP Friendship is magic fandom happened shortly beforehand.

I'm not defending these people, just I think there were a few factors that added up as well as their blatant homophobia.
